By the time Gimme Shelter reached theater screens, Altamont was a fixed symbol for the death of the 1960s' spirit of optimism. The Maysles and Zwerin used that knowledge to shape their film: their chronicle begins in the editing room as they cut footage of the Stones' Madison Square Garden performance of "Jumpin' Jack Flash," and from there moves toward Altamont with a kind of dreadful grace. The songs become prophecies and laments for broken faith ("Wild Horses"), misplaced devotion ("Love in Vain"), and social collapse ("Street Fighting Man" and, of course, "Sympathy for the Devil"). Along the way, we glimpse the folly of the machinations behind the festival, the insularity of life on the concert trail, and the superstars' own shell-shocked loss of innocence.
Gimme Shelter looks into an abyss, partly self-created, from which the Rolling Stones would retreat--but unlike its subject, the filmmakers don't blink. --Sam Sutherland

Customer Reviews of The Rolling Stones - Gimme Shelter - Criterion Collection
REQUIRED VIEWING. . . All bow down to the producers at Criterion, who have done an outstanding job of bringing to DVD one of the best Rock films ever made, GIMME SHELTER. The film itself has been reviewed to death over the past thirty years, so I won't do that here. I will, however, let 'cha know that beyond Criterion's beautiful, vibrant, remixed, remastered presentation lies a world of wonderful extras: 1) commentary by filmmakers Albert Maysles and Charlotte Zwerin, 2) audio material from the four-hour program broadcast by KSAN on December 7, 1969, 3) three different trailers for the film, 4) trailers for other Maysles Brothers films, 5) 5.1, 2.0 stereo and DTS sound mixes, 6) outtake footage including performances of "Oh, Carol" and a nice acoustic "Prodigal Son", 7) a studio mixing session with the band for "Little Queenie", 8) an extensive stills gallery, 9) a HUGE book with much material on the film and the filming, and lots more. GIMME SHELTER is a must-own for your video Rock library. Thank you, Criterion! <

The Storm is threatening...
While not a piece of cinematic brilliance, if you like the Stones and rockumentaries you'll be pleased. It has some nice footage and really shows what happened at Altamont, which is what the film mainly focuses on. If your looking for a film full of performances, this is not it, though there is footage of some songs from the '69 tour before Altamont, as well as a great clip of Tina Turner, who opened for the Stones during the tour. Check out the book True Adventures of the Rolling Stones for more from '69 Stones!
Gimmie Shelter - The Stones in their Golden Era
A fantastic behind-the-scenes rockumentary of the Rolling Stones during their peak in the early 70's. Very highly recommended for any Stones Fan. The commentary is fun and the rare live performance clips are great! Go Keef & Co.

>While, in my opinion, "Ladies & Gentleman... The Rolling Stones" contains the the ultimte concert footage of the Stones during this period of their career - it's not commercially available. This is. Gimmie Shelter is simply the best performance of Glimmer Twins & Company that you can get at your hands on. Buy it today.
